Vision Venture
A co-curricular interactive website exploring engineering students’ identities, agency, and purpose after graduation. This project was also part of an academic study that I co-authored. The paper was published and presented at the 2022 ASEE (American Society for Engineering Education) Zone IV Conference.

Instructional Design
Curate and co-teach workshop curriculum for undergraduate engineering students at USC:
-
In-depth interview skills and brainstorm questions for professional and personal development
-
Apply design thinking to life after graduation (e.g. classroom vs workplace)
Made positive impact on students:
“What resonated with me [from the readings] is that…finding your passion isn’t necessarily finding this dream job, but it’s about finding what you’re passionate enough about to endure all the aspects that you don’t enjoy.” - Isabel (Industrial and Systems Engineering Student, Class of 2023)
Video Editing
Produce video series of interviews conducted by students with alumni providing insights about life after graduation and those of students providing feedback on the project experience:
-
Storyboard according to themes emerging from alumni and student responses
-
Edit each episode into impactful but digestible lengths (1-5min)
-
Manage YouTube channel and observe traffic and feedback
Content Design
Develop content design on all project deliverables:
-
Design branding kit including project language, logos, colors and fonts
-
Work closely with UX/UI Designer and Web Engineer to create a website that adheres to the USC branding while giving a fresh, fun and user-friendly interface for target audience (i.e. current students, recent graduates and early professionals)
-
Draw wireframe to organize episodes from video series, offering an interactive journey on the website and encouraging visitors to choose their own adventure in broadening their perspectives on life after graduation
